Pretty Details
Last weekend, I decided to spend some time organizing my dresser. It was starting to become a messy catch-all for clothes, jewelery, and random things like cups full of 3 day old tea (eeew).
I found these super cool old cheese forms at a garage sale this Summer. They are perfect for corralling perfume, lotions and some jewelery.
I used a vintage ironstone platter to hold more jewelery, including a vintage bracelet from my Grandmother.
On the other side of the dresser, I pulled together a few pretty things. I love the candle, it's from Bath and Body works and smells divine. The vintage hat was from Goodwill, and the willow branches were leftover from our wedding.
One of my favorite additions is this tiny beaded hook. I found it at JoAnne fabrics (love that place), on sale for 50% off. I love having a place to hang up some necklaces so they don't get all tangled!
I also took some time to organize and clean up my nightstand. I love the little plant holder, it's mercury glass (also from JoAnne's). The clock is from IKEA and the coaster was a Goodwill find too.
Sometimes, I think the smallest changes end up being the most satisfying. What have you been working on lately?
